Platner really is a level of organic stupid that we should be proud of. He's the pinnacle of American culture.
Wait fuck I thought this was the general thread fuck. Oops

Anyone have any advice about calling in about domestic abuse? The possibility is there that’ll I need to do something like that, and it’s kind of a mess.
The dual pull of hating cops, but not having many other alternatives if things degrade.
This isn’t for me personally, to be clear.
If the mayor had any real principles, he'd order the cops to arrest the ICE agents anyway. Then if the pigs refuse, it's at least obvious where the lines are. But he's a spineless liberal, so
A death like this is sad, but there's also positive. Advanced dementia is not a pretty thing. A lot of times I roll my eyes at people calling death peace, but cases like this, where the mind goes, it really can be a true reprieve.
Better to celebrate his life, and be glad in it.
I don't really know what to say. It's just really sad.
There was the war against Japan
It’s not victim blaming. It’s just acknowledging the misogyny pervading gaming spaces, and how this act will intensify it. It’s not victim blaming to be frustrated about this, as the ramifications of this act will worsen conditions for women in gaming.
Ultimately the people at most fault are those doing the misogyny. That isn’t this person’s fault at all. But they did take actions that will intensify it, for their own personal gain. Being annoyed at them for doing this isn’t a symptom of latent misogyny. It’s just analyzing the action in the context it happened in. It’s about not ignoring the effects of an individual’s actions on the greater environment.
What annoys me isn’t that China doesn’t project military power everywhere, that they don’t have fleets roaming around Cuba. It’s that they don’t actually use their most potent weapon, their economic might, offensively.
It would be trivial for China to arm resistance groups, sanction Israel, and other similar things. Actions like that are the domain of economic superpowers, which China is. It doesn’t require them to fight foreign wars, or seek dominion over others. It’s just a gift to let others seek their own liberation. Yet they don’t do it.
We aren’t being misogynistic towards her. We are just saying she directly contributed to increasing misogyny for her own personal benefit, which is not good. That doesn’t excuse misogyny, at her or any woman. It’s just a statement of fact that she behaved selfishly, in a way that will harm other women.
She did the equivalent of pulling the ladder up behind her. She is making it harder for every other woman who wants to compete in these leagues. There was no emancipatory or political nature to her decision. It was entirely self interest at the cost of other women.
She is partially responsible now. She did this knowing it’ll aggravate it, for her own personal gain.

Trump Announces Seal Team 6 Killed U.S. Protester In Daring Overnight Raid [Onion]

This lady led a secret coup to depose the bourgeois government of the United States, installing a council republic with minimal bloodshed. Now, the next phase comes, to secure revolutionary power, and quell the counter revolution.
Girls rock.
Republican senators were alarmed and relieved when they learned that their colleague Sen. Joni Ernst had choked during a party lunch on Thursday and was rescued by Sen. Rand Paul, who gave her the Heimlich maneuver.
Ernst appeared to be making jokes about the experience on social media, tweeting, “Can’t help but choke on the woke policies Dems are forcing down our throats. Thanks @randpaul!”
“I didn’t actually see it,” said Sen. John Cornyn, a Republican of Texas. “We’ve had that happen one other time to one of our members. It’s kind of scary.”
Thank God. We almost had a tragedy. Imagine losing two American heroes in one day.
Thank you for your service, Mr. Paul.

Berkley Landlord Association throws an Eviction Party. Protestor slapped by Landlord.
(www.sfgate.com)
In a move that critics are calling “one of the most tasteless events I’ve ever heard of,” Berkeley landlords are celebrating the end of eviction protections in the East Bay city with a cocktail party. The Berkeley Property Owners Association, a trade group for rental property owners in Berkeley, apparently believes regaining the right to throw people out of their homes is cause for celebration — or at least a networking event. The “Fall Social Mixer: Celebrating the End of the Eviction Moratorium” is set for the evening of Sept. 12; the event was first spotted by Berkeleyside.
About an hour passed before protesters entered the bar, at which point multiple fights broke out, Berkeleyside reported. According to one witness, a male BPOA member who attended the event slapped a female protester in the face and pushed her. Videos of the event show other violent altercations, including a protester knocking a party attendee’s eyeglasses off and a party attendee swinging their fist toward a protester.
Statement by the Landlord association:
“We condemn the actions of hostile dissidents who disrupted a private gathering at a local restaurant to intimidate, harass, and physically assault our members who are law-abiding small business owners,” read part of a statement, which was shared with SFGATE.
"Hostile dissidents" is some interesting phrasing for local residents chanting outside of a bar.
